Need games ?

[DisabledAccount]

Why spend a night? Let's say it's a weekend game... Leave at 5 in the morning reach down here in the afternoon and stay n relax at the school gym or auditorium eat their n take a 10 min ride to Traz to play a 7:30 game n leave right after that... How costly a trip like can be?

Still the gas and fact of paying 2 bus drivers to drive back around 5 in morning for 7 hour ride back is still pushing it

[BrowardHandicapper]

Meaning behind this is? Lol

Hmm...something like "the bigger they are , the harder they fall"  ,   "let me at 'em, let me at 'em!"

[DisabledAccount]

Well we would be massive underdogs against central so I like that idea lol

[Tigerfan1]

It's at least 7 hours and means we one have to leave in morning and either stay the night in Miami or drive back after game and arrive at 5 or 6 am the next day and hotel would be costly for 60 players and like 20 coaches/personnel money we Dont have

Dixie went to Pahokee last year they left early in the morning hung out and relaxed before the game, and when it was over got on the bus and came home. I am sure it was a long trip and very tiring but they did it so it's not out of the question

Thank youTiger!!! It's not that expensive for 2 coach buses and gas... Sound like Columbia coming with every excuse in the book...

If it so easy then why can't they travel? They the ones who are big bad Miami central, they should have no problem taking a one off game, west orange did that a few years ago where they agreed to play one game and we never had to travel to them

[DisabledAccount]

We don't use coach buses, we use school buses as I see you don't know anything about our school system and how little they willing to spend

Columbia doesn't dictate the terms of a deal to Miami Central.

It is interesting that you talk of the rich winning tradition of Columbia High yet there is no functional or established booster club. Kind of odd in a small town...

Might be why we haven't played then, I do notice we for the most part dictate the terms of our games, that's how we got 3 kickoff classics in a row at home

We have a booster club but they not willing to fund for coach buses or overnight stays, I've tried to talk them into it for our escambia game but no one will listen

They don't consider it a necessity and feel there are more important things to spend money on and fyi town basically broke compared to Miami since this is one of poorest counties in state

Exactly, another example of the bully big fish in small pond syndrome. Columbia is actually a big deal to many of those teams that you set scheduling terms with. Kind of like it should be for Columbia to play National Champion Miami Central. It is a privilege for Columbia to play Miami Central.

Oh really? If you ever make it down here give me a call and I will drop you off outside of Miami Central High School - then you can tell me how " rich" Miami is.

[DisabledAccount]

I'm going to tell you a story, this year when we played sandalwood we had to take like 90 players and 20 coaches, guess how many school buses we took?

[DisabledAccount]

Oh and maybe we should move this to the Columbia trend lol

[BrowardHandicapper]

2-3? If your program cannot coordinate/afford transportation to Sandalwood in a pre-season game perhaps Columbia football is not really ready to be playing elite teams anyway.

Lmao! Wow! Really! Most of the schools from dade and Broward travel.... Central is going to Jacksonville to play First Coast... Norland traveled to Jacksonville too and that team is coming down to return the favor... You don't always wonder why when teams from down here play oos games they travel? That should tell you something... Those public Jacksonville teams are traveling down here you think they complain or come up with excuses? It sounds to me that you rather have a 10 game home schedule or scared to play on the road and once again is not expensive to make a 7 hr trip to Miami .... Like Broward said I don't think Columbia is in a position to be determining things....

[DisabledAccount]

Hey @zoeboy we gave up on that argument20 minutes ago now we on Columbia trend talking about csi Miami lol

Lincoln has been dropping a lot of tough games so i would be surprised if they added central but that AHP would be a great game

[SportsNut25]

I think Naples still needs wk 3 or 11.

 

Also - I hear Rockledge is now looking for wk 3 instead of 2.

I don't know if you are communicating with a Central affiliate or not, but there is a slim chance that Central has the 10/21, 10/28, 11/4 spots filled and just not releasing.  They have done that in the past.

Flanagan may have week 2 (9/2) and week 3 (9/9) open.
